I notice that if the program already exists, it functions significantly better. In that case, it displays 1 \ HI \ 1 \ HI HI.

Edit: Try using theta=2 instead of theta=1 to insert that first line of code. My suspicion is that theta=1 doesn't replace very well when the program has zero bytes of contents, even if that technically counts as 1 line.

:: I have added a fix for theta=1 that allows it to properly handle replacing the first line of a completely empty file. This obviates the need to change that theta=1 operation to theta=2
:: When I added Str9 as an item to be displayed with your latter two line count values, I received the error NULLVAR. Therefore, your program name got wiped out somewhere.

More as a note to self, new file downloaded, need to change 2->theta to 1->theta for first placement of data to the test program, convert a few sprites over from a mario ref sheet I found, and create a quick program for that.

Oh! What's the possibility of having theta=10 or whatever the next number would be, could we have it gather a list of all programs that are in the VAT, and drop the names in a list, with something to separate one name from another, like a + or something?

Edit:

For theta=8, can we get rid of the 2nd character return that does either visible or hidden, and replace that with Asm or Basic? I have an idea for something, but it kind of hinges on whether we can make that kind of change or not.
